Chapter 295 (1/2)

“Is your body that much stronger than Ku Meng’s?” Xue Ying stared at Lord You Lan. “I can kill him with a single spear, and I can do the same to you!”

“General Ku Meng’s demonic body might be powerful, but how can it compare to mine? Hmph.” Lord You Lan had just finished half of his sentence when he suddenly shot out both his palms without warning. His arms starting elongating explosively, and within the blink of an eye, those two black arms had reached Xue Ying. This pair of enormous palms was covered with gold seals, and some circles of gold seals were also amassed on his fingers.

That pair of enormous palms directly slapped against the body of Xue Ying.

Hua.

Xue Ying’s body dissipated, leaving behind only a destroyed illusion.

Hong hong!

Even though those enormous palms had suddenly stopped, the airflow they had generated produced two rays that rushed forward, gouging two large scars on the ground.

“Another illusion!” Lord You Lan frowned. His black and sinister countenance was filled with indignation. He remained vigilant of his surroundings. Meanwhile, time began flowing slower and slower in the domain around him.

The power of Dong Bo Xue Ying’s spear techniques is terrifying. Even General Ku Meng’s formidable body was still killed in a single hit. I’ve attained the help of the Great Demonic God and perfected my demonic body prior to coming here. My body is now stronger than that of Ku Meng, but if I face such a terrifying attack, I’ll most likely be injured even if I don’t die, Lord You Lan thought. His demonic body was strong, but he would not be able to withstand that terrifying spear technique.

Thus, he had to guard against him!

I must guard myself against him!

I must! I must defend. Lord You Lan was on full alert. He extended his senses to cover everything around him. He did not even dare to let his spirit relax, as he had to react as quickly as possible to any incoming attacks!

That was because Xue Ying’s spear would be coming from the Mirage at an extreme speed.

If he was careless for even a moment, the spear would most likely strike his body.

Just like Nuo Nuo An! Just like General Ku Meng!

Even though Lord You Lan had helped them, Nuo Nuo An and General Ku Meng still ended up being pierced by the spear. Xue Ying’s spear was too fast, and the distance between where it came out from the Mirage and the target was really short. Of course, even though it was really short, it still couldn’t directly come out from within the body of the enemy. Even though the Mirage could reflect reality, Xue Ying would not be able to discern the enemy’s face if they wore a mask—only the outermost appearance was reflected!

Xue Ying could only enter ordinary regions when leaving the Mirage and entering reality.

For instance, a Transcendent was able to fly in the sky, swim in the sea, or tunnel through the ground. Similarly, his weapon was able to transition from the Mirage directly into the sky, underground, or the sea.

But if he wanted to kill someone, the weapon would have to pierce through the body of the enemy. Thus, coming out from the Mirage…would similarly require the weapon to pierce into the body of the enemy.

The Extreme Piercing was a grade two True Meaning—an extremely offensive True Meaning at that. It also had to pierce into the enemy’s body. During this process of piercing, the enemy would be able to sense it and defend against it!

The speed of the spear is fast, and the distance it must travel is short. Nuo Nuo An and Ku Meng were both hit by the spear. I must defend myself against it. Lord You Lan prepared himself to face his adversary.

Right here!

Lord You Lan’s eyes glowed with golden rays. He suddenly turned around, as he could sense a terrifying force emerging from the Mirage.

Hong!

A spear, one akin to a moving fire cloud, emerged from the Mirage, appearing behind Lord You Lan.

But as soon as the spear materialized, Lord You Lan turned around and started retreating, simultaneously slapping his palms out!

This single spear…

It had a terrifying undulation just like the Laws of Profound Mysteries. It was just like an enormous star. This star suddenly expanded and released dazzling lights that began caving in, accumulating into a single point just like the start of all and the end of everything. Under the powerful binding of the True Meaning of Time Deceleration, its speed was halved, yet its power and profundity remained the same as before!

“Mn?” Countless gold seals appeared on Lord You Lan’s palm. Once this palm struck out, his expression suddenly changed. He could sense that this spear…was just like a terrifying maelstrom!

It had an extremely frightening attractive force!

Just as his palm technique changed accordingly…

Chi! The spear lunged out at an extremely fast speed. At the same time, the maelstrom’s attractive force suddenly converted into a repulsive force. It was hard for one to even get near the spear. That abrupt transformation from attraction to repulsion caused his palm techniques to fluctuate. One had to know that such an instantaneous transformation of force at such a close distance was life-threatening.

Crack! Lord You Lan’s five fingers suddenly swelled up rapidly, and amidst this danger, two of his fingers directly parried the spearhead.

The spearhead pierced through his fingertips.

Lord You Lan immediately flicked a finger, causing a dim, golden light to form on his fingertip. Space itself was directly shattered apart when his finger clashed with the spearhead. The moment the finger was flicked, a strength lesser than General Ku Meng’s, when he released all of his power yet of greater offensive threat was released. That was a result of his Laws of Profound Mysteries being more profound. The extent of the force’s reduction as it entered the Mirage was also smaller.

Xiu.

The spearhead withdrew before disappearing into nothingness.

Almost! I did not think that his spear could undergo such a terrifying gravitational change. This inversion of gravitational force is comparable to a peak stage three realm True Meaning of Gravity! Lingering fear struck Lord You Lan.

…

“Was that really…” The Meishan Clan Master and the other golden-robed male, Jian Huang, felt an inexplicably grand wave surge through their hearts.

…

The spear appeared time after time from nothingness.
